Tait Yat Elevator (Hong Kong) Company Limited was accused of failing to install fire-resistant door frame components on 48 lifts at Tsui Ping (North) Estate in Kwun Tong and Pok Hong Estate in Sha Tin while reporting the work as completed. After surprise inspections, the EMSD considered that the incident might involve criminal acts of fraud and providing false statements, and will refer the case to police. Polytechnic University visiting professor Ho Wing Yip said the components are used to connect the wall and fire-resistant door to prevent fire and smoke from entering the lift and shaft through gaps during a fire, and he considered that it might not be ruled out that it was a supervision problem, with the true cause pending investigation.
Why read this: The EMSD referred the case to police after surprise inspections, affecting 48 lifts across two estates, so readers can check whether their own estate is on the list.
The Housing Authority said serious defects occurred during lift replacement works at Pok Hong Estate in Sha Tin in 2025 and at Tsui Ping North Estate in Kwun Tong in 2026 respectively, and that it will pursue the liability of Tai Yat Elevator (Hong Kong) Limited.

The Housing Authority also advised the owners' incorporation of Fu Heng Estate, which is preparing to replace its lifts, to hold off on approving the contract.
